A Cap on Cars in Mallorca: Emergency Law or Rush Job?

Answer

What needs to be in place for a car cap in Mallorca to work properly?

A workable system would need clear quotas, digital permits, enforcement at access points and defined exceptions for residents, businesses and essential services. It would also need stronger public transport, better park-and-ride options and a transparent way to review the results. Without that, a car cap could create confusion and end up in legal disputes.
